9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD
for the tool. Make sure your exten­sion cord is in good condition. Conductor size should be in accor­dance with the chart below. The amperage rating should be listed on the motor or tool nameplate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Your extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords if they become damaged.

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not
wear loose clothing, gloves, neck­ties, rings, bracelets, or other jewel­ry which may get caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear is recom­mended. Wear protective hair cover­ing to contain long hair.
11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES.
Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. Everyday eye­glasses only have impact resistant lenses, they are NOT safety glass­es.

footing and balance at all times.
